42. There Will Be Joy

1 After the clouds roll by,
After the last long sigh,
Happiness great will come to you and me;
We shall be safe at home,
Never again to roam,
Praising Jehovah by the crystal sea.

Refrain:
There will be joy thro' all the ages,
After the cares of life are o'er,
When we have reached the land of beulah,
There will be joy forevermore.

2 After the march is done,
After the set of sun,
We shall be gathered on the golden strand;
Gathered with friends of yore,
Seeing them smile once more,
Viewing the splendor of that happy land. [Refrain]

3 After the burden rolls,
Freeing our weary souls,
Letting us speed away to our reward;
There will be rest and peace,
Pleasures that never cease,
For we shall reach the city of the Lord. [Refrain]
